You need to start some daemons by specifying them in /etc/rc.conf.local : pkg_scripts="dbus_daemon avahi_daemon avahi_dnsconfd ... " It also was necessary to add some lines to ~/.xinitrc/~.xsession : # if dbus is installed, start its daemon if test -x /usr/local/bin/dbus-launch -a -z "$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" ; then eval `dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session` fi (although I don't think that bit is required anymore. Not certain though.) As others have said, the pkg-readme files explain exactly what you need to set up. -- James Griffin: jmz at kontrol.kode5.net A4B9 E875 A18C 6E11 F46D B788 BEE6 1251 1D31 DC38
